VOL. 112 NO. 4 IMPERIAL COUNTY, CA. 92250 THURSDAY, JANUARY 28, 2016 Calexico Joins Other Cities In Banning Medical Marijuana By Mario Conde The Calexico City Council approved the second reading of an ordinance prohibiting medical cannabis dispensaries, medical cannabis cultivation, and cannabis delivery in the city. The action taken by the council at their last City Council meeting was brought forward to the Calexico Planning Commission first and voted in favor to recommend a Municipal Code amendment banning cannabis dispensaries and was later sent to the City Council for ratification or be modified to regulate it. Back in March 2012, the City Council adopted an ordinance which prohibits medical marijuana distribution facilities in the City. The current Code does not specifically prohibit other medical cannabis uses such as planting, growing, harvesting, drying, storing, processing, or delivery. The California legislature recently adopted legislation identified as the Medial Marijuana Regulation and Safety Act to comprehensively regulate or ban medical cannabis cultivation, transportation or distribution. The Act confirms and clarifies that, in addition to the complete land use control over retail dispensaries recognized in City of Riverside v. Inland Empire Patients Health and Wellness Center, Inc., municipalities have the power to regulate or ban the cultivation and distribution of medical marijuana. Cities in California have until March 1, 2016 to have an ordinance regulating or banning cultivation within its city limits or the state would become the sole licensing authority. According to the Sacramento Bee, nearly 100 cities and more than a half a dozen counties have abruptly voted to ban marijuana cultivation outright rather than race the clock to draft ordinances that regulate cultivation. Also, the League of California Cities advised to enact complete bans on cultivation to assert their authority over the state. Interim Calexico City Attorney Carlos Campos stated in his report that cultivation, transportation, and distribution of marijuana can create problems relating to the public health and safety, crime, water and air quality, and energy consumption. "Specifically, mobile delivery can create issue relating to the responsibility and resources to monitor and enforce state law, questions of patient qualification, and risk relating to the high use of large sums of cash for mobile transactions." Attorney Campos noted in his report to the Planning Commission last month. Councilman Armando "Mandy" Real inquired if a person who has a medical marijuna prescription can order one and be sent to Calexico. Interim City Attorney Robert Hargraves said that the ordinance states that commercial delivery will not be allowed. Citrus Festival was canceled without notice. The festival, which took place on the same weekend as the Rib Cook-Off at the Cliff Hatfield Airport near Calipatria High School, had been plagued BRAWLEY’S JEREMIAH CRANE (#11) shoots a free throw during last Friday’s IVL match vs the Calexico Bulldogs.

Photo by Jim Predmore by bad weather and lower than expected attendance figures due to competition with the Holtville event. According to a spokesperson from the Calipatria Chamber of Commerce, there wasn't enough manpower to run the three-day festival. "We have a lower membership is than in earlier years and didn't have an entire team to run all three days," said the spokesperson. The Citrus Festival was started as a celebration of the local citrus fruit industry, much like Brawley's Cattle Call and Holtville's Carrot Festival celebrations of beef and carrots. Citrus growers enjoy the warm humid weather found in the north county area during most of the year, allowing them to grow nearly year round.. It was believed by city officials that people unwilling to spend hours at the Holtville Rib Cook-Off would travel to Calipatria for their event. It was also believed that enough people would travel the thirty miles to reach Calipatria after the Cookoff ended. Event organizers often found difficulty finding in acquiring carnival rides as most operators were unwilling to travel to Calipatria for just the three-day festival. However, a vendor that supplied rides for a December event were willing to work during the Citrus Festival had there been an event happening. The Citrus festival featured daily contests, such as "Craziest hat" and an "Apron fashion show," along with local vendors and charity booths. Entertainment included local bands, formal dances and performances by Zumba groups. It was not known if the Citrus Festival would return next year if additional manpower was available.

Each of the vendors at the yard sale paid a fee to the Clinicas for the chance to sell their merchandise at the highly visible location. Each seller was allowed to keep any money they generated from their own sales as well. Several sellers spent their morning filling up their allotted spaces with various merchandise from old clothes to used dishes and sports equipment. Traditionally, the sale would have taken place in October, but construction to expand the Clinicas’s east and west wings prevented the sale until last weekend. In previous years, the Yard Sale has benefitted several local charities, such as the Cancer Resource Center of the Desert and the American Cancer Society’s Relay For Life. This year’s sale didn’t have a known beneficiary. Yard sales are a common sight around cities like Brawley, where a need to make extra money and to find new homes for old and unwanted items.

(USPS 247-880) SDSU “Taste Of The Valley” To Feature Murder Mystery Show And Dinner By Mario Conde San Diego State University will have host its annual scholarship fundraising event and this time will be biggest one yet. SDSU Imperial Valley Campus has organized the "Taste of the Valley" event where people had various options on where to eat and have a nice dinner and conversations. More than 300 people attended the last two events that will help raise money for scholarships. This year's event will take place Saturday, March 19, at the Imperial Center in Heber and will be re-named the "Taste of Mystery". The theme of the event will be speakeasy, prohibition era set in the 1920s. A speakeasy, also called a blind pig or blind tiger, is an establishment that illegally sells alcoholic beverages. Such establishments came into prominence in the United States during the Prohibition era. During that time, the sale, manufacture, and transportation of alcoholic beverages was illegal throughout the United States. Speakeasies largely disappeared after the Prohibition was ended in 1933, and the term is now used to describe some retro style bars. Valorie Ashley, Director of Development, is the organizer of the event and said that this event will be different and one that has never been done in the Imperial Valley. "This is a great opportunity to have fun and at the same time support the student of SDSU Imperial Valley Campus." Ashley said. The event will be a formal sitdown dinner, and a murder-mys- tery plot will unfold during the event organized San Diego Murder Mystery Company. There will also be vintage movies, period entertainment and dancing. Several students have benefited from the scholarship money raise by the previous events like SDSU Student Clarissa Teran who has been able to continue her education here in the valley. "My experience at SDSU-IV Campus has been a very positive one and been able to a lot of things not just for personal growth but also professional. I've been able to do many things here and go somewhere else." Teran said. SDSU Student Annette Jordan also benefited from the scholarship fundraising and motivated her to pursue higher education. "As a child I never imagined pursing higher education or doing masters' degree. Once I came here and I started studying and graduated I started to have that drive to get a little bit more." Jordan said. For more information about ticket sales and sponsorship for the event contact Valorie Ashely at (760) 768-5569 or e-mail [email protected].

Tribune-Weekly-Chronicle Thursday, January 28, 2016 PAGE 03 Calexico Council Tables Request For State To Audit City Finances By Mario Conde The Calexico City Council tabled an item at their last council meeting that would ask the State Controller's Office to do an audit on city's finances. At their January 19 meeting, Calexico Mayor Joong Kim had an item on the agenda asking the Controller's Office to do an audit on city's finances for the last 8-10 years. The California State Controller's Office accounts for and controls disbursement of all state funds, acts as the State's accountant and bookkeeper of all public funds. The Office also administers the State payroll system and unclaimed property laws. Moreover, the Office is responsible for auditing various state and local government programs. Mayor Kim stated that the State needs to do an audit since they need to know where they stand financially since, he said, there is discrepancies in the Finance Department that need to be solved such as lost documents and no receipts. The City currently does not have an approved budget for 2014-15 Fiscal Year as the Finance Department is preparing a two-year budget proposal for its approval. During a previous presentation about the budget, it was reported that the city was in a deficit and there was a deficit and finance was going to bring options on how to solve the shortfall. "We need outsiders to come to the City to help us see what is going on and find who is responsible for this." Kim said, "Maybe then we can move this to the next level." Councilman Armando "Mandy" Real requested the item to be tabled since he said that he called the State Controller's Office and told him that they will not do an audit unless their books are closed. "This is like throwing gas on fire. We need to close our books and see where we are because they will not be doing our audits for us." Real said. Kim questioned Real saying that he requested an audit on Measure H funds and asked why is not supporting this. Real said that the State told him that they will only come if their audit is finished and that would not mean that they will accept coming. Interim Finance Director Eduardo Gutierrez said that they are close to finishing the books and have the numbers ready. The council voted to table the item and discuss it at a future meeting County Probation Department Receives Grant To Replace Kitchen Equipment Last week, the Imperial County Probation Department received an award notification from the California Department of Education that they have been selected to receive a grant award of $100,000 to replace aging kitchen equipment in the County’s Juvenile Hall. The grant, originating from the U.S. Department of Agriculture, will go towards purchasing replacements for the majority of the kitchen’s large appliances. “This is great news for the Probation Department and the youth they serve from their kitchen, including youth at the Juvenile Hall and the Betty Jo McNeece Receiving Home,” said District 2 Supervisor Jack Terrazas, who is also Chairman of the Board of Supervisors. “I want to commend the Probation Department and its staff for their success in securing this 6th Annual Youth Summit Set For February 13 Saturday, February 13, the Imperial County Probation Department and the Imperial County Juvenile Justice Commission will host the 6th Annual Youth Summit in El Centro. The event will run from 7:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the Corfman Auditorium located at McCabe School.

The community meeting will be held on Thursday, January 28, 2016, at the Carmen Durazo Cultural Arts Center, 421 Heffernan St. Calexico, CA 92231, from 5-7 p.m. The New River Improvement Project was created by AB 1079 in 2009, and required the CAMexico Border Relations Council to Develop a Strategic Plan to guide its implementation. This meeting will provide background on the Project and the Strategic Plan, present progress to date, and will outline ideas to update the Plan to ensure the implementation of projects that will improve the harmful environmental conditions of the River. Please join us to learn more about this project for your community. Assemblyman Garcia will be joined by representatives from various state agencies including the California Environmental Protection Agency (CalEPA), the Colorado River Basin Regional Water Quality Control Board, Caltrans, and community groups including the Calexico New River Committee and Comite Civico del Valle. grant that will greatly benefit our community.” "We greatly appreciate the State Department of Education’s support in awarding the funds to Imperial County,” said Chief Probation Officer Dan Prince. “Modernizing the Department's kitchen equipment will optimize our ability to prepare and serve nutritious meals to the youth placed in our care. I especially wish to thank our Imperial County Board of Supervisors for their support of this grant opportunity." The Imperial County Probation Department’s food service must plan and prepare meals to meet specific nutritional requirements set forth by the State of California. The food service facility cooks and serves approximately 97.4 meals per day for youth at the Juvenile Hall facility and the Betty Jo McNeece Receiving Home combined. The kitchen was built in 1976 and most of the equipments had not been replaced or updated in over 25 years. In the grant application, the Probation Department requested to replace the kitchen’s combi oven, reach-in refrigerator, a mobile heated cabinet, a mobile refrigerator cabinet, an ice maker, and funds to purchase a new gas tilting skillet. This new equipment will increase the Department’s ability to serve healthier meals to a potentially larger group of children while simultaneously operating an energy efficient kitchen, reducing energy costs by approximately 25%.

The first arrest occurred at 4:25 p.m., when U.S. Border Patrol agents assigned to the Calexico Station were on routine patrol when they detected a man making an illegal entry into the United States approximately 25 miles east of the Calexico West Port of Entry. Agents arrested and trans- ported the man to the Calexico Border Patrol station for processing. There, agents identified the man as David Ernesto Pacheco. Agents also discovered Pacheco was a member of the notorious "MS-13" criminal gang. The man, a 44-year-old citizen of El Salvador, will be held at Imperial County Jail and prosecuted for his illegal entry into the United States as a previously removed felon. The second arrest occurred, at approximately 4:30 p.m., when a 36-year-old man approached the Highway 86 checkpoint driving a blue Chevrolet Malibu. A Border Patrol detection canine alerted to the vehicle. Agents referred the man to the secondary inspection area for a closer examination. After an intensive search, agents discovered 18 vacuum sealed bundles of methamphetamine hidden in the vehicle's rocker panels. The methamphetamine had a combined weight of 38.12 pounds with an estimated street value of $381,200. The man, a Lawfully Admitted Permanent Resident from Mexico, the vehicle, and narcotics were turned over to the Drug Enforcement Administration for further investigation. From October 1, 2014 through August 31, 2015, El Centro Sector had 14,511 apprehensions and seized more than 445 pounds of methamphetamine. -CBPU.S. Customs and Border Protection is the unified border agency within the Department of Homeland Security charged with the management, control and protection of our nation's borders at and between the official ports of entry.

What is it about Holtville that makes people fall in love with this city? I truly think it is the people of Holtville that make the city so great and welcoming. Whenever there is someone in need, the community comes together in and in a big way. If someone has a loss in the family or someone is stricken with an illness, the community is there to help. Holtville schools are some of the best in the Imperial Valley, teaching our children all about that Holtville pride. There are 17 churches listed in Holtville and several service clubs that keep our city moving along. Our City staff is dedicated to making Holtville great. Public Works keeps all of the necessities in order. Our city workers work tirelessly to make our parks the best in the Imperial Valley. Those in the Civic Center work hard in keeping the city running and trying to stretch every dollar and always looking for funding opportunities for improvements. The City over the past several years has been able to secure 30 million in funding through grants and low interest loans to help keep Holtville's water and waste water plants up to date and to better serve the citizens of Holtville. Our public safety employees are also dedicated to Holtville. Our Police Department is contracted through the Imperial County Sheriff's Department and staffed with their officers. The officers take such pride in this city that recently they designed their own "Holtville" patch for their uniforms. Holtville's Fire Department firefighters help to protect our city from any danger of emergency and when there are not out responding to emergencies, they are out in the community with events at our schools through the school year. They organize the Ice Cream Social at Holt Park and help decorate the city for Christmas. As we enter into this upcoming week of Carrot Festival activities, the City will be ready to shine once again through the crowing of our new Carrot Queen and her Court, and through the recognition of our "Citizen of the Year". This will be followed by the smell of BBQ in the air and the sound of people chomping down on some ribs at the Rib Cook-Off. All of this leading to a week of fantastic "Carrot Cooking" for the Carrot Cooking Contest. By Monday we will start seeing some of the Midway Carnival rides arriving and the carnival will be once again set up for Thursday's opening. Saturday will be the 69th Carrot Festival Parade and Festival in Holt Park. Sunday will bring something new with a Tailgate party and Cooking Contest on Holt Avenue and a Beer Garden and Super Bowl Party at Samaha Park. Having the Carrot Festival, Rib Cook-Off and the Super Bowl all in the same week doesn't happen very often, but Holtville will be ready to shine once again for all those that visit the festivities. I look forward to seeing all of you during the coming festivities and wish all a great week. "I Love Holtville!" Its Going To Be A Party!!! Worst Songs Of 2015... Or, How Our Columnist Gets Himself Seriously Hurt! EVERY SO OFTEN, we need to express our true passions, even if that expression has nothing to do with the assigned task at hand... So, we're going to discuss the worst pop songs of the last year instead of what's going on in Imperial County in the next few weeks... Rules are simple: The song has to be on the year-end Billboard Top 100 and have a radio-friendly version that received enough airplay to reach our neck of the woods (or dunes as it were). DISHONORABLE MENTIONS (or what would have been #10 - #6 if we had enough space to expand on any opinions.) • R. City ft. Adam Levine – Locked Away: For being a wishywashy song about an unrealistic circumstance. (Seriously, who would lock Adam Levine away, except to stop him from recording more Maroon 5 stuff?) • Beyoncé – 7-11: For being a confusing and ultimately awfuldance song from someone who is otherwise supremely talented. I’mma let you finish, but “Single Ladies” this is not. • Luke Bryan – Kick The Dust Up: For being the last example of “Bro Country,” we hope. Let’s hope this genre rests in peace for eternity • Fifth Harmony ft. Kid Ink - Worth It: For being an awful example of relationship entitlement (more on that subject later). • Cool for the Summer – Demi Lovato: For being a creepy and cheesy song about same-sex curiosity that was only a hit in the summer of 2015 because it had the word “Summer” in the title. NOW, THE LIST: #5: Silento – Watch Me. I don't have anything against dance songs, mind you, but this isn't a dance song. It's a bunch of other people's dances, mentioned in repetition during this “song.” Lyrically, this is the “musical” equivalent of a 3-year old whining to his mother to watch him do something he just learned while she's trying to do something else. Now, what really made this song popular was an internet trend called “Vines,” which are 7-second clips, and Billboard is now counting YouTube views as part of their rankings. This change in policy, more than anything, is what will destroy the music industry far faster than piracy and Napster ever could. The internet is a weird, wonderful place where things like "Friday" by Rebecca Black can become big because of how awful it is. We really don’t need more of that in our pop music, though. #4: Rachel Platten – Fight Song Let me state, for the record, that if this is YOUR fight song, you're going to lose, lose big, and get sent home crying, or worse! Rachel Platten is not so much a singer and songwriter, but someone her record label is really, REALLY trying to convince you is one. However, what the real problem of this song is that it's so generic and bland, it's unique and not in a good way. This is the sort of song anyone could have taken and done well with, with lyrics that could apply to any situation and fit perfectly. Woke up late for work? "This is my fight song!" Stubbed your toe in the shower? "Take back my life song!" Ran out of change for the bus? "Prove I'm alright song!" You get the idea. This is the easy listening version of Katy Perry's “Roar,” a very weak "inspirational" anthem in its own right. This is the sort of song you'd expect to hear in the background of a truck commercial while some smarmy announcer speed talks about miles per gallon and financing options during the instrumental break. #3: Taylor Swift ft. Kendrick Lamar - Bad Blood If there's one positive about Taylor Swift, it's that she writes songs about what she knows. Unfortunately, it seems that all she knows is how to be vindictive after a breakup with a boyfriend (most of her songs), blast against her critics (“Shake It Off”) or, in this case, be catty after a falling out with a female friend. “Bad Blood” was supposedly inspired by a fight between Swift and another performer (because someone who writes songs about breaking up with people would be a great person to hang out with). This brand of high schoollevel girl drama is something I'm not interested in. You also have a singing style that is more of constant flow of crashing waves (dah-dah-dah duuuh uuuh) that gets exausting after a while. The video, featuring celebrities playing superhero in custom fit black spandex, doesn't help either other than reinforce the notion that attractive women look good in tight clothes. #2: Meghan Trainor - Dear Future Husband This song is on the list mostly for it's possible negative cultural impact more than just being an abysmal song (which it most certainly is). Now, I'm not an expert on marriage and relationships but I was under the impression that a successful marriage involved mutual respect, trust and understanding. Unfortunately, Meghan's “dear future husband” isn't a “partner” as much as a combination ATM machine and plastic doll, having to deal with conditions that border on the psychopathic in order to keep Miss Trainor happy. Concepts like “Always apologize, even when she's wrong,” and “we'll be seeing her family more than his” are the same kinds of insanity that plagued western society in the 1990s and 2000s through bad sit-coms, magazines and talk shows. Stealing/sampling from Dion's “Runaround Sue” doesn't help either. To anyone who might become Miss Trainor's “Dear Future Husband,” I leave you with this piece of advice: Run. #1: Charlie Puth Ft. Meghan Trainor - Marvin Gaye. Far too many songs about sex and lust are vulgar and nasty, I'll admit. This song, however, is about as stupid and “wonder bread” as you can get. These two people give a performance that screams “we know nothing about this subject” while the lyrics attempt to turn the name of the definitive singer on the subject of sex and lust into a verb. This is the modern equivalent of Pat Boone singing Fats Domino's “Ain't That A Shame,” combined with being the weakest song about sex since “Afternoon Delight” by the Starlight Vocal Band. While there is a need for music for people afraid of their naughty bits, this is just awful. Let's not forget the fact that this song sounds like cheesy, doo-wop music from the 1950s rather than the soulful Motown music style that Marvin Gay actually sang in. It has more in common with “Muskrat Love” from The Captain & Tennille than Marvin Gaye. WELL... COME BACK at the end of February for the best songs of 2015! If we survive until then, that is! Until next time....

This event, sponsored by Real Hope Center, is held each year at Bucklin Park in El Centro to bring abortion awareness to the community. Each year, 3000 luminaries are lit and placed in the park, to symbolize the approximately 3000 babies who die each day in this country by abortion. Several women gave tes- timonies of their abortion experience, and event hosts Marty and Deby Ellett shared some abortion statistics. Amaris Ministries, Real Hope Center, and WOVEN had information tables available, and WOVEN supplied hot dogs and bottled water to those in attendance. This event is held each year as a wrap up of National Sanctity of Life week, which promotes a culture of life and urges women to choose life for their unborn children.

Some Helpful Tips To Finance Major Home Improvement Projects Many homeowners recognize that improving and maintaining a property makes a home more livable for its inhabitants and more attractive to prospective buyers when the time comes to erect a "For Sale" sign in the front yard. But a well-maintained home also provides additional benefits. According to the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development, home improvements not only raise the values of individual homes, but they tend to raise neighborhood standards as well. Home improvements can create jobs and help local communities flourish economically. Maintaining a home can be a costly undertaking. Home improvement projects can be expensive whether homeowners hire professionals or tackle renovation projects on their own. The following are a handful of options homeowners can consider as they look for ways to finance renovation projects. • Paying outright: Paying for the renovations upfront and in full is perhaps the simplest way to finance a project. Homeowners who have the cash to pay for renovations outright won't have to worry about interest rates or balloon payments. • Mortgage refinancing: Some homeowners tap into their home equity to cover home remodeling projects. Refinancing a mortgage cess. The City of Holtville tries very hard to be prepared in case of a real emergency they do have 250 cots in storage bens along with Military Surplus Ready to A COMMAND POST is set up to facilitate an earthquake drill that was performed in Holtville on Tuesday Morning helping Holtville to be prepared in case of an emergency.

By Jim Predmore In an effort to keep local control over Medical Marijuana the Holtville City Council passed an Urgency Ordinance imposing a Temporary Moratorium on the Commercial and Industrial Cultivation, Processing and Distribution of Medical Marijuana in the City Pending the Completion of Studies and the Preparation of an update to the City's zoning code. The California State Legislature adopted a series of bill called the Medical Marijuana Regulation and Safety Act that were signed into law on October 9, 2015. The Act went into effect on January 1, 2016 and set up a State licensing process for commercial medical marijuana uses while protection local control by requiring that all such businesses acquire a local license or permit to operate in addition to a State license. Cities are allowed to completely prohibit commercial medical marijuana activities. Cities are required to take local action on this issue by March 1, 2016, or State law will become the sole authority. This moratorium will keep local control to the city and will allow for proper studies to be performed along with preparing for updates to the city's zoning code. Holtville has joined Brawley and Imperial in imposing this moratorium on medical marijuana means paying off the debt owed and starting over with a completely new loan. Refinancing comes with various fees and can cost between 3 and 6 percent of the loan's principal. • Home equity loans and lines of credit: Both of these options are commonly referred to as second mortgages. When homeowners apply for home equity loans or lines of credit, they are borrowing against the equity value in their homes. A home equity loan is a term, or closed-end, loan. It is a one-time sum that will be paid off over a set amount of time with a fixed interest rate and the same payment each month. This is a one-time loan from which a person cannot borrow further. A home equity line of credit, or HELOC, is like having a credit card. It's possible to borrow a certain amount for the life of the loan, which is a set time specified by the lender. During this time, homeowners can withdraw money as it is needed up to the value of the line of credit. HELOCs typically have a variable interest rate that fluctuates and payments can vary depending on the amount of money borrowed and the current interest rates. Many home renovation projects require homeowners to develop a home improvement budget. Homeowners are urged to explore all options and find the least costly loan method and the one that will present the best possibility for avoiding debt.

You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contact- ing the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (714) 730-2727 for information regarding the trustee's sale or visit this Internet Web site www.servicelinkASAP.com - for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case: 123861. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.
